Samsung typically uses the Galaxy Note phablets to push new technology. Which means the loss of a technological superpower from the upcoming Galaxy Note 9 could leave a critical void in the South Korean company’s portfolio.

Apple is reportedly taking steps to design and manufacture its own display components for the first time, as it looks to reduce its dependence on suppliers such as Samsung Electronics, while keeping its component costs in check.

NEWBERRY, S.C. (AP) — South Korean-based appliance manufacturer Samsung announced the expansion of its production footprint in South Carolina on Monday, making progress on a plan to create nearly 1,000 jobs in the state by 2020.

Micron Technology (MU) investors need not be too worried about expansion of DRAM chip capacity by Samsung Electronics (005930KS), according to a note today from KeyBanc Capital Markets analyst Weston Twigg. Twigg, who has an Overweight rating on Micron stock, writes that he spoke yesterday evening with Samsung “to get more clarity on its DRAM expansion plans this year." The upshot, as he sees it, is that the total amount of bits Samsung is driving up with additional capacity is below the level of expected demand, so it’s okay: Samsung, which represents 35-40% of DRAM production, indicated that it may grow its net DRAM wafer starts per month (wspm) by around 10% for the year (implying around 40k in new wspm), and that it would likely exit 2018 at a slightly higher rate than that.

Today’s the day the Galaxy S9, Samsung’s flagship phone, became available.

Samsung Electronics Co Ltd plans to begin building a new memory chip production line in China in late March, a spokesman said on Thursday, as the tech giant ramps up efforts to boost NAND flash technology to meet future demand. The tech giant said in August last year that it expected to invest $7 billion over the next three years to expand its NAND memory chip production in China's northwestern city of Xi'an, but had not specified a future schedule. The rapidly growing data centre market, which needs more memory capacity to handle increasing data traffic, is expected to underpin revenue growth and margins for Samsung's NAND Flash business in 2018, research provider Trendforce said.
